Abstract:
Cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMVR) is the most frequently encountered ocular opportunistic infection in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). In the absence of accurate diagnosis and effective treatment, CMVR can cause different degree of ocular injury and even blindness in AIDS patients. Therefore, the early diagnosis and timely treatment of CMVR is particularly important. This article aims to review the progress in research on the clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment drugs of CMVR.
